This assay is to provide SHP-77-based In Vitro MTT Assay (Cell Viability) to accelerate our client's oncology projects. The assay will be customized according to the specific requirements. Please contact our scientists to discuss more details.

SHP-77

Human

SHP-77 epithelial cells are derived from a non-encapsulated primary lung tumor from the apical portion of the upper lobe of the left lung of a 54-year-old, White male in 1977. SHP-77 cells can serve as an in vitro target in 51Cr and 111 in release cytotoxicity assays as well as in vivo nude mice assays for evaluating immune reactivity of cells and serum from lung cancer patients. The cells can be used to evaluate the immune status of patients with SCLC who are treated with radiation or chemotherapy.

In Vitro MTT Assay (Cell Viability)

The MTT (3-(4,5-dimeth ylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay is one of most commonly used assays for cancer drug screening. This assay has been very popular among cancer researchers as an initial assay in drug discovery. NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductase or dehydrogenases in viable cells can reduce MTT into purple-colored formazan, which can then be solubilized for spectrophotometric analysis.

Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays

Uncontrolled proliferation is one of the main features of cancer cells. Cell-based in vitro assays are employed to determine whether test molecules possess direct cytotoxic/antiproliferative effects in cancer cells.
